Stylish School Supplies You Need

After enduring 11 years of school, I’d say I’m somewhat of an expert when it comes to school supplies. Here’s the things I absolutely need going into each new year:

Pilot G-2 Pens // Hands down, the best pen on the planet. Whether you’re a 0.38, 0.5, or 0.7 thickness person (personally, I prefer the 0.38), the G-2 is consistently smooth, crisp, and doesn’t smudge.

Blue Sky Academic Planner // I wasn’t a “planner person” until I bought this. It’s geared toward students and centered around a September – June school year. What I really love about it is how it’s organized by day – perfect for writing down assignments and test dates.

Herschel Classic Backpack XL // Nothing like a giant backpack to stuff all those papers, binders, and pencils in! The design of this backpack is classy and clean, and most importantly, it’s durable.

Zebra Mildliners // The bullet journal community is obsessed with these, and I agree. Normal highlighters are boring and honestly, kind of hurt my eyes. The fifteen cute, pastel colors can almost motivate me to stop procrastinating.

S’well Water Bottle // Yes, a water bottle is a back-to-school supply! It’s a little extra, but this water bottle is downright beautiful (those gentle curves!) I own one already, but I’m eyeing the S’well x Urban Outfitters ones. How else will I distract myself in class?
